The Taylor Institute, Oxford, 1844. The building was 'erected from the bequests of Sir Robert Taylor, the architect, and of Dr. Randolph...for the study of modern languages [and as] a picture and statue-gallery...The portion allotted to the Taylor Institute, from the designs of Professor Cockerell, is shown in our illustration...Externally, this middle building has a tetrastlye Corinthian portico, carried up as high as the wings...The most striking features in the wings are the large arched windows in the second tier; which, besides having a projecting balcony, are recessed, and are carried up quite through the entablature of the Ionic order'.
